AFFIRMED.

Before WILKINSON, NIEMEYER, and LUTTIG, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

OPINION

George Lee Kosko appeals from the district court's order refusing relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (1988). Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. United States v. Kosko, Nos. CR-87-48-R, CA-92-17-R (W.D. Va. June 23, 1992).* We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED

* Kosko alleges that his presentence report contains false information concerning the amount of drugs involved in his pre-guideline offense. The record does not establish whether the quantity of drugs was controverted at sentencing, which would require the sentencing court to make a finding on the issue or to state that the matter would not be taken into account in sentencing. Fed. R. Crim. P. 32(c)(3)(D). Kosko has waived consideration of this issue, however, because he did not raise it in his direct appeal to this Court, United States v. Kosko, 870 F.2d 162 (4th Cir. 1989). See United States v. Emanuel, 869 F.2d 795 (4th Cir. 1989)
